Season 26/27 started today for our primary school aged athletes. They competed in School Sport SA track and field championships. This is a pathway event to state team selection.
We were well represented:

Henry Schwerdt 200m gold, 100m silver, LJ silver, relay bronze
Maddie Reynolds 200m gold
Harrison Stephens 800 gold, 1500 silver (under previous record)
Narla Sarecki 800 gold, 1500 gold, HJ bronze
Isla McIllroy 1500 bronze
Jack Moss 1500 4th
Caitlyn Hansen 1500 9th

Most of these performances were PB’s
The medalists all stand a good chance of being selected in the SA team for School Sport Australia nationals in December.

Awesome effort by all of them.
Apologies for not getting photos of everyone.

Caitlyn and Narla have had an awesome experience in Ballarat at the Athletics Australia National Cross Country Championships.
They only met two weeks ago and now they are training partners and friends.
Both were in the under 12 3km, Narla come in 40th and Caitlyn 64th in a field of 80.
Lifetime memories made as they represented SA for the first time (I’m confident it won’t be their last ).
Tough conditions but they were both smiling at the end of it.
GTS are proud of you girls
